Both a complex style and a ripping one. It walks to the beat of its own drum and yet it’s textural and come-hither too. Not a bad combo. Apple, rose petals, hay, earth, wood spice and strawberry tart. That latter note – the strawberry tart bit – is more prominent than the list of descriptors might suggest. I like how expressive this is, how different, how good it feels in the mouth. It’s tangy and tasty.

What is The Wine Front?

The WINEFRONT has flourished as a wine review and information site since 2002. We believe in hard work, realistic scoring, reliability and rigorous independence. We cover Australian wine principally but we extend coverage across the wider world of wine. The hunt for the next beautiful wine knows no boundaries. The WINEFRONT is run by Campbell Mattinson, Gary Walsh and Mike Bennie. A full history of reviews and articles is available to subscribers via the WINE SEARCH tab.
